Supporting your Social Services & Aged Care organisation

Ensuring the well-being of your organisation

 

We know that dealing with vulnerable people, in challenging circumstances, on a daily basis comes with a unique set of workforce challenges and workplace risks.

Recruitment difficulties, high staff turn over, employee mental health, work health and safety and complex award entitlements just to name a few.

Our multidisciplinary team can see your matters through from start to finish - interpreting awards right through to supporting you with disciplinary, misconduct and legal matters.

We work with you to resolve issues as they arise but can also identify procedure gaps, skill shortages, training needs and more.

Resourcing and Contracts

Your work is vital to the well-being and future of many in our community – we are here to ensure the well-being of your organisation. We can help you with the complexities of managing staff so your team can focus on helping those in their care.

When things go wrong

Having a large team and working in a high risk environment, means you need to have measures in place for when things go wrong. We are here to help you with:

Legal Advice and Representation

Often issues can be resolved without legal action, but there are times when this is necessary. Our experienced lawyers are on hand to provide clear Legal Advice and recommendations which clearly outline the risks and benefits. Where needed, we can also represent you in a court of law.

Policies and Processes

We know that one of the best ways to keep things on track is to have robust policies, processes and guidelines in place. We have a range of resources for you to use and adapt for your organisation. Our team can help you with this, as well as conducting a review of your current practices to help you identify any gaps.
